b. Sites that have a mailing list. You want your potential partners to contact their customers/readers with your offer.

Look for ezine publishers with large lists. Small lists are good if the readers are loyal.

3. Create an irresistable offer. This is where you will lose BIG.

Give your partner a copy of your product. Include bonuses with it. Offer an ad swap. You are only limited by your imagination here, but whatever you do, make it an offer that gets attention.

Tell them what the product will do for them. More importantly, tell them what your OFFER will do for them.

Make your offer personal. Don't send it to "Dear Friend". Call them by name and when you send them your offer, send it individually. You don't want to get accused of spamming, and your offer will be rejected before the publisher reads it.

4. Make it easy for your publishers to accept the offer. Include the download link for your product in the email.

Overdeliver here. Surprise them with how much you are willing to give to get them to partner with you.

Explain exactly how these publisher can take advantage of the offer, i.e. how they can make money from your offer.

Send you sales message along. Then, all your publishers have to do is insert their sales links.

Explain exactly what you want your publishers to do. The less work they have to do, the more likely they are to accept your offer.

5. Repeat the process
Work the backend. Now that you have new customers, make sure you follow up.

Offer a free ebook, report, newsletter or ecourse. Send them an email thanking them for buying your product.

Send them other offers that complement the products they just bought. You can even put an ad on the download page of their products with another complementary offer.

Tell them about your affiliate program.

Just keep in contact with your customers. Don't let them forget about you. Earn their trust, and they'll be your customer forever.

When you have a new offer available, make sure you tell your new partners about it. After the first offer, if you've made it a great offer, you won't have any trouble getting them to accept your offer again.
